Advantages: Works well if there's only a thin covering.Disadvantages: Tends to freeze the inside of my windscreen

Personally I'm not a big fan of de-icers, I find that no matter which brand I use I nearly always end up having to scare the inside of my car windscreen as well as the outside. Am I doing something wrong, who knows? I find that a simple scraper does the j ...

Tango air freshener
I like to have an air freshener in the car and at £1, this was quite a cheapie.

Febreze clip on car freshener
I have used a lot of the febreze products and when I saw this in a local store, I decide it would probably be just the job for the car. I have the cotton fresh clip on but the product is available in more than 10 scents incl ...

Advantages: Easy to use, will not run out like a de-icer, sturdy and well built, great valueDisadvantages: Pretty basic and a touch on the small side

Despite the fact that Christmas has now come and gone, I still find it exciting going through the stash of presents that I received from "Santa" and testing each one out in turn as the need arises. I received quite a variety of different gifts in my stock ...
